101 Damnations (album)
–
101 Damnations is the debut album by Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine. Its title is a reference to 101 Dalmatians, sheriff Fatman was highlighted as displaying the albums characteristic sound, Raggett said the song itself may be about a total rat-bastard of a slumlord, but the name of the game is energy and fun. Blues is an unsubtle, emotive anti-war song which closes the album with a lighter-waving end-of-the-concert sweep and it was originally released in 1990, on Big Cat Records, then reissued on Chrysalis Records peaking at number twenty-nine on the UK Albums Chart. A2011 reissue featured five tracks including the single which followed the release of the album, Rubbish. Trouser Press called it a fully realised debut and mind-blowing in the most stimulating sense. At the end of 1990, NME ranked it at number 29 in their list of the top 50 Albums of the Year, in 1992, NME ranked the album at number 19 in their list of the top 20 Near-As-Dam-It Perfect Initial Efforts.
